I guess once you have a society that is stable enough to support significant tourism, this scuba instruction matter will sort out by itself (at that point business will be better if you are agency certified).
Actually scuba is a good example of successful self regulation, without excessive government intervention. This is how it goes, even in nordic countries where government usually regulates everything.

Or when a "significant" person dies while or after taking diving training from a "fake" instructor.

scuba has no legal standards

That isn't entirely true, the legal systems goes with "community standards" and the standards set by the respective agency.

Are you stating that in Canada anyone can start teach diving and he the student gets injured or dies because of diving, the instructor won't be held liable?
